Looks good. I've synced doc-linux.changelog to
doc-linux-nonfree.changelog, leaving out bug closes that apply only to
the free package.

(I'm not sure if it applies here, but note that HOWTOs have been known
to change licence, so checking the updated ones as well is a tedious but
necessary task.)

Heh, I'd already made a commit for this before reading this mail. :)
I've set the Maintainer to this list. I've also set Uploaders to myself
for now, but please do feel free to add yourselves by way of
documentation of being on the maintenance team - I didn't know what
addresses people would prefer. We should probably have everybody's names
in the "New maintainer team" line in the changelog as well.

Yes, apart from a small build-depends fix. I've done this.

Cheers,
